How often have you heard the saying, "Nothing in life is free"? Is music the one exception to the rule? It depends on whether you want to do it illegally, or if you would rather go through legal channels. To burn and download free music, you are going to have to make a choice, risk the consequences or do the right thing.

Music is available online for free download. Something that sounds so simple can be really complicated when you look at it closely. Yes there are websites giving free music downloads. But not every song they list is for free. A simple search on the internet will give you a list of websites making music downloads available, free or for fee.

Regardless of the preferred genre, the majority of teenagers have an iPod or MP3 player and they are always listening to tunes. A device small enough to fit in the palm of your hand can hold hundreds, if not thousands, of songs. So your adolescent is likely to download free music online.

Naturally, the availability of anything for free or for cheap attracts millions of people. Most of these people would listen to the same music even without piracy, but would have to pay for it. Obviously, the artistes, the studios, and all the music industry are losing out on hundreds of millions of dollars worth of genuine revenue, every year. It is no different from theft.

Unfortunately, you may not think about the consequences of your actions. For example, in the not too distant past, a download free music site is slapped with a lawsuit because they are giving people music that does not belong to them in the first place. As a result, CD sales go down, and music artists lose a substantial amount of income.

Some sites say the music is for free and then once you spend time selecting and creating your song list, you are asked to pay a small fee. Some sites will allow only partial track downloads for free, as a preview. For the complete song you will have to subscribe, in other words, pay.

Some sites will allow music to be heard only when you logged into the website. Some will give you a subscription and once it expires you need to renew your subscription to enjoy your music with the website, or you can kiss your song lists good bye.

You can find sites which will let you pay per song or per download or for different time periods. Know what you are paying for before entering your financial information. If not, you might end up paying more than you wanted to.

So, before you allow your teenager to download free music online, check out the site and make sure it is legitimate. Plenty of sites are offering the service in a proper way. But, others are not giving credit where credit is due, and are actually pirating the tunes. So, make sure your child knows the difference, for happy listening.

Be careful or you may break copyright laws. Be cautious or you may end up paying for music you had no intention to buy. Take care or your year?s worth of online music collection may go up in smoke because you did not renew your subscription. Be shrewd or you may pay more than you budgeted.
